Let's say your child had no friends. He or she is always by themselves, they spend a lot of time in their room watching TV, playing video games, or on their cell phone. They don't have anyone to go out or hangout with. How would you respond to that?
Would you criticize them? Would you try to help them?
Why does my child have a tv, game console, and unregulated access to a cell phone, all in their bedroom?

And OP, can you explain this? It isn't normal for a kids to be allowed so much unsupervised screen time behind closed doors. Why is this child different?
No I am talking about from the perspective of a child.
That's not what you asked, but a child wouldn't necessarily know what they were missing, you know, human interaction with the rest of the world. So they may be totally content in their reclusive routine.
Or is your real question more about a child being harassed by parents to get out of their room?

When I say child, I mean anyone under the age of 18-not just young children. I am also including high school aged children in this bracket.
